Swim Competitive Training & Technique Camp
June 28-July 2
Grades 4-12

 

Who Should Attend

Penn State Swim Camp is open to students entering grades 4-12 next fall. It is preferred, but not required, that swimmers have a year competitive swimming as the camps are not "learn-to-swim" camps.

Penn State Swim Competitive Training & Technique Camp is designed to focus on the fundamentals of technique, training, and performance.  This camp will emphasize the skills, in and out of the water, that will allow swimmers to improve their competitive swimming experience.  Each swimmer will receive specific instruction on all facets of a competitive race as well as workout fundamentals and tips. Workouts are structured to improve stroke technique with a combination of drills, skills, and training, and will take place in both long-course and short-course pools.  Campers will have one of the most comprehensive and up-to-date training camp experiences available in the United States.

Features of the Competitive Training & Technique Camp:

  • Instruction & training workouts provided by the Penn State Coaching staff
  • Access to Penn State Swimming facilities
